Executing Dzohkhar Tsarnaev in Violation of States’ Rights

A “death-qualified” jury in Boston decided on Friday to impose the death penalty on Dzohkhar Tsarnaev in a state where the majority of people oppose the death penalty and where there has been no death penalty for over 30 years.

Back in April, I wrote an article about Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker failing to stand up for his state regarding the potential execution of Tsarnaev. You can read here my article “Gov. Charlie Baker Applauds US Government Circumventing State Law to Execute Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.”
